Bionic coming soon!!
- Thread starter 5h4un360
- Start date
Always wondered how people bought CDMA phones off C-List. Did you check with Verizon to see if the ESN was clean before you met up with the person? Also, what if the phone actually ends up being a lost phone that wasn't reported yet? Are you screwed? Also, does the manufacturer's warranty transfer over?

I got my dx non rooted off ebay for 150, less than two weeks old too, came with 2 cases, one of which is otter box and a car charger and wall charger.
The guy actually told me to call vzw in front of him to verify the esn and to ensure once I activated it, it would be mine. So I did, and vzw rep said it was clean and mine for keeps.

Any of them, Pick your favorite. I'd pick the OG Droid, for 125 bucks and it's new... Why not? It's only going to a filler phone until the Bionic comes out. and they have ROMs for it too.
Either the Droid 1 or the X2. The Droid 1 is a fair price and it is still a useable phone. That price for the X2 seems too good to be true - it must be $600 retail right now. I'd probably go for the X2 if it is legit. We are still probably a couple of months away from Bionic.
I vote x2 if it's legit. X if you want a standard phone. OG if you just need a 'tide me over' device.

OG Droid is the winner with the Fascinate in 2nd place. X2, X while good phones can't compete with the Droid and Fascinate as far as customization. Fully unlocked phone beats the X and X2 hands down.
Droid wins. The mods and support are second to none. Still have mine and use it.

I still have and use my OG Droid also - great phone. If the main criteria is "as cheap as possible" then the Og Droid is still great. But for the sake of usability, there is no contest. If I had to choose between using my OG Droid or the X2 for the next couple of months, I would choose the X2. Dual Cortex A9 1GHz processors v. single Cortex A8 @550MHz, 512 RAM v. 256, Much larger internal storage on the X2, better GPU, etc.
I still love my OG Droid but it is getting old and laggy, even OC'ed to 1.25GHz and I constantly have to delete apps of the internal storage to make room - there are still a lot of apps that won't allow you to put them on the SD card.
Plus if youre happy with the X2 maybe you could hold out for a 2nd gen lte dual core.

But I have $100 new every two credit that expires in Sept., So I will see what comes out before then it'll prolly be the Bionic for me, unless it never comes!
There is also a Droid Charge listed fir $285, but no phone number to reach anyone, however I did email them, we'll see if it's legit in a day or so. But I am not getting my hopes up.
If you're only going to use the phone as a placeholder, I would choose the phone that would yield the highest margin once you got your new phone.
When I activate this "filler" phone on Verizon, they aren't gonna make me change contract or anything are they, since I have unlimited data now on my feature phone, and that year "promo" that is family talk, text, and unlimited data for $140 that expires in Jan 2012. Can I just call *228 to put the phone on the line, (providing it's not the droid charge).
If you have a Feature phone right now with Unlimited data, I am willing to bet that they will charge you the $30 extra for 3G data once you activate a smartphone. It might not change your plan completely because all you're doing is activating a new phone and not resigning your contract, but the Unlimited data you have now is probably EDGE, not 3G.
Someone with better knowledge of how carriers categorize these things might be able to explain it better, but I find it difficult they would honor a feature plan into a smartphone.

It was actually offered for smartphone users and when I told them I was getting a smartphone, at that time I thought the Bionic would be out by April, so they said it would be fine, I also called to see if my data would be grandfathered in yesterday, and that particular CSR said it would but I don't know if I should believe him or not. I just need to talk to the right person, should I ask for a supervisor when I call? I'm trying to save money as much as possible. I love verizon but, they are expensive! Sprint would be my next pick. If they don't allow me to keep this contract I either:
1. wait till my contract is up in Jan. and switch carriers
2. change data plans, go with the 1400 min talk only, get the $10 text plan for each my husband and my plan, put the $30 unlimited plan on my phone, (he doesn't get a smartphone) and maybe get a $10 feature phone data plan for him. (That would be close to what I pay now)
Decisions, decisions! I just wish I could speak to a rep that knows something concrete!
AaaaaaHHHHH I'm gonna get wrinkles stressing over this crap!
I think there are *many* of us that are a little nervous about this question. It appears that those of us with an unlimited (3G) plan now will be okay - but it would sure be nice to get some verification!
